A new generation of plastic granulation technology: efficiency, robustness, and industrial precision


As it celebrates its 75th anniversary, Heinrich Dreher Maschinenbau, based in Aachen, Germany, reaffirms its position as a global benchmark in size reduction technologies with the launch of the high-performance KX 60/100 HZ-6M granulator.

This is a solution developed to meet the most demanding challenges of the plastics transformation and recycling industry, combining technological innovation with robust and reliable engineering.
At Ruy de Lacerda, we are proud to represent this brand in the Portuguese market and to actively support the development and implementation of equipment that makes a real difference in our customers’ productivity.

 

⚙️ Top-level technical performance
The KX 60/100 HZ-6M was specifically designed for processing plastic pipes and profiles up to 6 meters in length, offering a throughput of up to 1,000 kg/h and powered by a 90 kW motor, ensuring consistent industrial performance, even under continuous operating conditions.

Material feeding can be done manually, via forklift, or using a tilting device, allowing seamless integration into existing production or recycling lines. This flexibility translates into enhanced safety, ergonomics, and operational flow.

However, the true differentiator lies in Dreher’s exclusive inclined cutting technology, a system that guarantees:
• Significant energy consumption reduction
• Minimal blade wear, extending maintenance cycles
• Precise and consistent cutting across the full working width, ensuring uniform granulate size
• High bulk density regrind, ideal for extrusion or injection processes

 

🔍 Quality is not a coincidence – it’s a process
Over the decades, Heinrich Dreher has built a reputation based on reliability, engineering precision, and commitment to customer results. This new granulator is a reflection of that legacy: a machine that combines durability, industrial performance, and adaptability to real production needs, all meeting the highest standards of German quality.

 

👥 Partnerships that make a difference
Delivering solutions like this depends not only on technology — but on the people behind it.

We would like to extend a special thanks to Louis Hartel, from Heinrich Dreher Maschinenbau, for his constant availability, technical support, and collaborative spirit. The trust we share with our partners is the foundation that allows us to bring impactful solutions to the market.

Internally, we highlight the work of our team, in particular, António Pereira, José Quintino, and Sabino Borges, whose deep technical expertise, hands-on project involvement, and clear understanding of customer needs contribute daily to the success and longevity of the solutions we deliver.

 

📌 Efficiency, reliability, and production continuity
At Ruy de Lacerda, we believe that technology only fulfills its purpose when it creates real value for those who use it. That’s why we continue to invest in brands and solutions that respond rigorously to today’s and tomorrow’s industrial challenges.

If your business is involved in plastic processing or recycling and you’re looking to:
✅ Reduce operational costs
✅ Increase granulation process efficiency
✅ Improve regrind quality
✅ Integrate new solutions into existing lines

Then this new generation of granulators might be the solution you’re looking for.
